[Jim Laskey (Oracle)]

Yes.  The infrastructure team has been working on the new build system and nashorn is further down the list.  It will come though.

The Infrastructure changes for the build and management of the nashorn repo are in progress and are being tested in the nashorn forest.  The result of a build against nashorn will be the conponent jdk8/lib/ext/nashorn.jar.

It's initially a bit confusing because the hgforest.sh script in nashorn/jdk8 doesn't appear to have been updated to add the "nashorn" repository, hence get_source.sh does not clone it. Also it doesn't appear that the top-level make files know about "nashorn" yet and so it isn't built. Maybe folks building Nashorn today just copy nashorn.jar into the ext directory?
